Coach in Training Program
at Playformance Camp
Our coach in training (CIT) program is designed for exceptional middle and high school aged campers, age 12 and up, who love PLAY, love KIDS, and are looking for more responsibility and growth. Potential CITs must register for the CIT Camp weeks they are interested in HERE.
CITs gain valuable life skills and experience which enhance their lives, improve their contribution to their families, and prepare them for their first jobs. (Playformance does not guarantee future employment if your child is a CIT…but it happens!)
Many of our most loved coaches are former CITs and Interns!
Coaches in Training will...
Build communication skills
Strengthen leadership skills
Challenge their bodies through vigorous play
Learn to work together in a team
Gain confidence with public speaking
Become a beloved role model
Make new CIT friends
Learn best ways to resolve conflicts
Learn how to be their best selves
HOW TO BECOME A CIT:
Register for the weeks you are interested in on our Camp Calendar
CITs must be going into 6th grade or be a minimum of 12 years old
CITs must have a true interest in helping younger campers
Not all middle school aged children need to be CITs to come to Playformance Camp! Kids 12 and up are welcome to come as campers too. Lots of kids prefer to just come and PLAY!
CIT Camp is available during Summer Camp (May - August) and School Break Camps (academic school year)

We no longer ask potential CITs to complete an application
CITs agree to uphold the values and healthy play rules of Playformance, and work to serve the campers and each other.
Those who choose not to uphold these standards, will not be allowed to be CITs until they are able to demonstrate their responsibility. CITs must wear CIT shirt (one provided) and attend for a minimum of 5 days of camp in the summer.
CIT training day required for all summer CITs. Date TBD
Middle school aged people are NOT required to be CITs! They are welcome to attend as campers instead!
